Dark Knight Prestige Class

[FideiCrux]

Hello,

New here, not new to the game though.

A member of my group is wanting to convert a class he found on DnD wiki's to Pathfinder. He was an avid FFXIV player and enjoys the Dark Knight tanking class and wants to bring it over to our game.

It can be found at: http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Dark_Knight_(3.5e_Prestige_Class)

Does this seem to be a bit... excessive (overpowered) for the game? I playtested with it, and that seemed to be the case. Wanted to get others opinions.

There a version on D20pfsrd, by Harrison Labs, seems to be the Pathfinder version of the 3.5e prestige class.

I don't find it too overpowering. There are some prestige classes that can change a campaign, and this doesn't seem to be one of them. Dark Seal, Drain, and Dread Armor are the useful powers, and whilst they are nice powers, they simply allow your tank to tank.

Given the prerequisites, I would imagine anyone stepping into this prestige class is already your tank, so nobody's role changes with this.

In my opinion, I would let them play it. The level of gameplay can always be upped to match.
